Detox and other Food Programs

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

1. WILL I BE STARVING?

Nope! Recipes included in the detox program include breakfast, lunch, and dinner, plus snacks. Every delicious meal has been carefully created by a chef with the focus on nourishing your body from the inside out. This program is not about starvation or deprivation, and there’s no counting calories or dwelling on carbs. You’ll feel satisfied with every bite. If you do get hungry, nosh on one of the healthy snack ideas provided.

2. CAN I STILL WORKOUT DURING THE PROGRAM?

Part of a healthy YOU is being fit - and this program is no different. If you feel tired or have low energy, exercising will help. During this program, you will be eating sufficient protein and drinking plenty of liquids, so if you’re already exercising, there’s no reason to stop. It’s important to remember that whenever you change the foods you eat, your body changes as well. Consult your doctor if you have any specific concerns about your health before starting any new program.

3. WHAT SORT OF PROTEINS WILL I BE EATING?

You will have the option for plant or animal-based proteins, which will be listed for you in the recipes and meal guide. There are a variety of choices for “clean eating protein sources” to choose from so you won’t get bored eating the same thing all the time.

4. AM I ONLY GOING TO BE DRINKING JUICES AND SMOOTHIES?

No way! While there are some juices and smoothies for you to choose from, you’ll also be eating salads, soups, and even desserts that are delicious, nutritious, and will eliminate toxins in your body in a safe and natural way.

5. DO I HAVE TO TAKE SUPPLEMENTS, PILLS, AND POWDERS?

Not in this program! The only supplement I recommend that everyone take on a daily basis is a probiotic, and you’ll learn why in this program.

6. CAN I DO THIS IF I’M NURSING OR PREGNANT?

If you are nursing, I suggest that you add at least 4-6 ounces of protein at lunch and dinner, boost your morning smoothie with a scoop of hemp or pea protein, and eat snacks in between meals. Make sure you are consuming extra fat and drinking enough liquids. This program does not include any detox-provoking agents, but again, please consult with your doctor prior to starting this program if you have any health concerns.

7. WILL I FEEL WEAK DURING THE PROGRAM?

No! Instead of feeling weak or tired, you’ll feel strong and energized. In the beginning, your body may go through a “healing phase” to re-balance and let go of toxicity. It is important to listen to your body

through this program, and I will be here to support you with that. I’ll guide you every step of the way to reduce any unwanted symptoms that may appear. This program is completely flexible for figuring out what works for YOU.

8. I DON’T EAT GLUTEN OR DAIRY. HOW CAN THIS PROGRAM HELP ME?

Many people who already eat clean still have room to “empty out the pipes” with an elimination diet and take their healthy habits up a notch. Changing up the foods we eat gives our digestion time to rest and reset, which can be helpful for anyone, regardless of their current eating habits.

9. WHAT SIDE EFFECTS MIGHT I EXPERIENCE?

Some people go through this program and feel nothing but energized, while others may feel tired or light-headed as their bodies eliminate and let go of unnecessary toxins. The experience will differ from one person to the next, but this program is designed with that in mind, and you’ll have access to all the tools you need to keep any unwanted symptoms at bay.

10. I HAVE A KNOWN MEDICAL CONDITION. IS THIS STILL SAFE FOR ME?

While this program is based on eating only whole foods, it’s still advised that you consult your physician before beginning this or any program.

Note: It is important to consult your physician before beginning any new eating or exercise program. This is a clean eating program designed to teach you the difference between foods that inflame you and foods that fuel you.
